Geology Club

The primary purpose of Onondaga's Geology Club is to promote geological inquiry outside the formal classroom. The club promotes awareness of geology by means of field trips, career luncheons, attendance at professional geology meetings, and informal presentations by club members. The club also sponsors internships, job shadowing, and study groups. A secondary purpose of the club is to increase intellectual interchange and social interaction between students and faculty on an informal basis.

The Onondaga Geology Club (or GeoClub) has in recent years organized field trips to:

a career luncheon each semester which brings in speakers to talk about careers in geology

Earth Day cleanups each year

If you want to know more about the GeoClub or wish to join, we hold meetings most Wednesday's (during the fall/spring semesters) during the college hour (11:15 -12:10 pm) in Ferrante 367. Also look for our fliers around campus for planned activities. If you want to know more contact Faculty Advisor Brian McAninch.

Syracuse Post-Standard article (.pdf): Trilobite fossils collected several years ago by Meg Harris and Geology Club Members were studied and subsequently identified as a new species. In recognition of Meg's significant contribution to this discovery the trilobite was named the Kennacryphaeus harrisae.
